Summary: For the first time, Zuko fights his sister on equal ground

On the Field of Battle

Despite his regret over the fact that it had come to this, Zuko felt exhilarated as he dueled his sister for the crown and throne of his nation and the fate of the world. He was matching her blow for blow, meeting her every move. He had gotten hints of this when he had fought her at the Boiling Rock, but Sokka had also been involved in that battle, helping him. Unlike that fight, this one was one-on-one, with no need to worry about protecting anyone else. With the power of the comet thrumming in his blood, he was finally meeting his sister as an equal on the field of battle.

Summary: Zuko finally learns how Azula found him in Ba Sing Se

Not Anymore

Team Avatar, Mai, and Ty Lee were relaxing together after dinner on the day after Zuko's coronation, not really talking about much of anything, when Zuko surprised everyone with a question.

"Mai," he said, "I'm not sure why I never asked you this earlier, but how did Azula find out that Uncle and I were in Ba Sing Se?"

Mai cast a surreptious glance at Katara, then smirked wickedly and said, "You mean Katara never told you?"

"N- Katara?" Zuko's head immediately snapped around to look at the waterbender and she shifted uncomfortably as she became the center of attention.

"I thought I was telling Suki!" Katara snapped. "I wouldn't have said anything if I had realized it was Azula before I started talking."

Characters: June, Zuko
Summary: June never wanted to take another job from the Fire Nation prince again

Unwelcome Trouble

After the disastrous job she had taken from the Fire Nation prince, June was not expecting to see him again and she certainly wasn't going to take another job from him. So when he showed up at her favorite tavern asking for help in finding the Avatar—again—she brushed him off. That lasted right up until he asked, "Does the end of the world sound like more fun?"

Freezing momentarily, she slowly sat up straighter and put down her cup. "What do you mean by that?" she asked him.

Taking a deep breath, he answered her. "I mean," he said, "that Sozin's Comet is returning the day after tomorrow and my father is planning on using its power to burn the entire Earth Kingdom to the ground. If we can't find Aang before then, everyone is going to be in deep trouble."

"All right," she said, getting out of her chair, "I'll help you. And under the circumstances, I'll do it for free, since I doubt you have any money with you." Walking over to the prince, she got right up in his face and said, "But let's get one thing straight. If nothing happens the day after tomorrow, you are going to be in very deep trouble with me, Prince Zuko."

Characters: Ursa, Zuko
Summary: Ursa is overwhelmed by her reunion with Zuko

Dizzying

When Ursa saw Zuko for the first time in six and half years, she was left dizzy by the rush of emotions that flooded through her. She was deliriously happy. She was sad. She was amazed by the changes in him. She was relieved that he was alive. She was angered by the scar. Hugging him close, tears streaming down both their cheeks, she reveled in the fact that he was right there, in front of her, happy and whole and safe.

When she finally got her emotions under control, she pulled away from him slightly so she could look at him. "I am so happy to see you again," she said. "I missed you every day and I never stopped thinking of you."

Characters: Zuko
Summary: Zuko wonders how water can be so destructive

Hurricanes

Zuko hadn't expected to have to deal with a natural disaster so early in his reign. But the second hurricane of the season, coming just two and a half months after his coronation, was the worst one recorded in twenty years. The beaches on all of the islands in its path were inundated by the storm surge and it took two weeks for all of the flooded areas to drain.

Sitting in his office reading the damage reports and requests for aid, Zuko wondered how something as gentle as water could be so destructive. Then he remembered what Katara could be like when she was angry. Water might appear gentle, but it could be more dangerous than fire when it was aroused.

A/N: Yes, I did write this while Hurricane Irene was raging.
